The lighthouse is already quite dilapidated, but still walkable.
The iron staircase leading up to the top is however already rusted.
At the top, a few pieces of broken glass still swing in the wind.
A lonely, romantic place in June.

Hiking

First we followed the driveway to the lighthouse until we found the footpath over the mountain. In any case, it is more pleasant to walk (a mountain path) and shorter than the serpentines of the road. You can get an impression from the pictures.
The view from the heights is phenomenal, that alone is worth the walk.

Hiking

Year after year, the old "guardian" rusts away lonely on the striking Fellsklippe. Nevertheless: An interesting and yet quite lonely hiking destination.
